For the information they handle under those laws, the Privacy Act applies whatever their turnover, including reporting serious data breaches. - **Tax file numbers.** If you hold tax file numbers, a serious data breach involving them has to be reported to the OAIC, whatever your turnover. *This is general information, not legal advice. Check your obligations with your adviser or professional body.* ## How we can help ### [↗ Managed IT Day-to-day support with the security checklist built in.](https://ventacore.com.au/services/managed-it) ### [↗ Cyber security and compliance Protection against payment scams, and help with client and insurer questionnaires.](https://ventacore.com.au/services/cyber-security) ### [↗ AI and automation Copilot to draft and summarise documents, with confidential files properly locked down.](https://ventacore.com.au/services/ai-automation) ### [↗ Business systems Practice management connected to your accounts.](https://ventacore.com.au/services/business-management-systems) ## Protect your clients' files and funds Book a free consultation, or take the free Essential Eight check to see where you stand.
